Lots of Dustin Johnson in Arnie’s swing. Check out the incredible angles created in the upper torso and shoulders and the depth of the midsection. This was one strong dude. He was so much fun to watch play: always teetering between brilliance and disaster. Nobody lashed it like Arnie.

@kyleroar every teaching pro knows that with a shut clubhead, you need fast hips or you have to not release the c lub as much, and that finish was Arnie's way of keeping the clubhead square at impact and not hitting a big hook with a shut clubface t impact

Arnie was good for the game, a very nice man, very compassionate and friendly, no wonder he had so many fans, very humble as well, and I think some parts of his swing (i.e. the steep shoulder turn) were very advanced

Hey Wayne. Thanks for all the videos. I used to be a player who kept my left foot down on the ground because various pros preached that action. After watching so many classic players lift it, I started to apply it to my own game. I found that it helped me always have somewhere to send my weight, thus nearly eliminating the reverse pivot I would sometimes do under pressure. In doing so, it also added 20 yards instantly and helped me shallow out my downswing plane. Thoughts?

@wdefrancesco The announcers are addressing millions of couch potatoes ….Trying to make telecast entertaining for them. That little pain for the golfer and maybe there loved ones come with the territory. I choose to defend the viewers who are watching the golfers being criticized making thousands if not millions. Side note … Where are those golfers who had their swings ripped apart?

I used to have lot of Arnold in my swing, shut face, steep shoulder turn. Problem was I didn't have Arnie's strength, and ability to clear my lower body fast enough. Not to mention I couldn't get much lag as I can't hinge it my left wrist past more the 70-80 degrees when it's bowed. If you're like Dustin or Arnie and can make it work though, more power to you.

He is an idiot. Anyone who knows anything about scoring and not just watching videos of other people would understand why Jack, Gary, Arnie…are great and why you can't really argue with results. Not that I believe GS is anything but a moron troll trying to draw attention to himself. Some people can't get positive attention, so they have to resort to negative.
